As part of an ongoing series of enlightenment practices, this meditation, inspired by Adyashanti, invites you to let your human heart be soaked in the presence of your spiritual heart, allowing it to restore and reorient your whole being to completeness and wholeness. This meditation can be used in the morning, at bedtime, or on the spot in the course of your day. The practices build on each other, so you can listen consecutively, but if there is one in particular that speaks to you, feel free to stick with it. Based on the teachings of Adyashanti, they can be used alone or as a companion to his audio series, The 30-Day Wake Up Challenge, or his book, The Direct Way: 30 Practices to Evoke Awakening. In some cases, the meditations are also loosely inspired by the teachings of Andrew Holecek, Pema Chodron, and Eckhart Tolle.  I hope you enjoy.Audio by Eric Fischer. Support the showHost: Tess CallahanSubstack: Writers at the WellInterview Podcast: Writers at the WellMeditations on Insight TimerMeditations on YouTubeTess's novels: https://tesscallahan.com/Music: Christopher Lloyd Clarke.Audio Editing: Eric Fischer of Audi-Refined.com By tapping "like" and "follow" you help others find the show.

This episode features an interview with Pam Beal, a board member of Radio Tacoma (KTAH 101.9), a grassroots low-power FM station dedicated to democratizing media and amplifying local voices. Pam attended Wilson High School, Concordia Lutheran College, and Reed College. She received her Ph.D. in English (dissertation on William Blake and Enlightenment philosophy) from SUNY Buffalo, which provides a perfect background to run a community radio station. Radio Tacoma is part of the rise of low-power FM (LPFM) community radio stations, focusing on local content that includes progressive politics, labor rights, climate activism, indigenous rights, and the homegrown music and poetry scene. Coming From Left Field has been added to the content broadcast on Radio Tacoma, making this a reciprocal interview that blends media critique, local activism, and radical philosophy, with a common “left field” ethos shared by the podcast and station.   Radio Tacoma (KTAH 101.9): https://radiotacoma.org Also streamed on TuneIn: http://tun.in/sfyVw Radio Tacoma Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/RadioTacoma101.9 Find your LPFM station: https://lpfmdatabase.weebly.com/ Good resource for LPFMs: https://recnet.com Greg's Blog: http://zzs-blg.blogspot.com/  Pat's Substack: https://patcummings.substack.com/about   #PamBeal #CommunityRadio #LowPowerFM #LeftistPodcast #MediaJustice #Tacoma #Activism #CommunityRadio #LowPowerFM #IndependentMedia #GrassrootsJournalism #MediaReform #Political & Philosophical #LeftistPodcast #Marxism #Socialist #ProgressiveTalk #AntiCapitalism #ChristianSocialism #LiberationTheology #Tacoma #GritCity #LocalPolitics #ActivistRadio #ClimateJustice #IndigenousRights #PublicBanking #RadioTacoma #SarahAugustine #PoliceReform #NoamChomsky #GregGodels# PatCummings#CFLF#ComingFromLeftFieldPodcast #zzblog #mltoday

What sect of Judaism did Jesus belonged to? How has the Enlightenment influenced Theology? Is evil an abstract absence of God? This and more in today's mailbag edition of Called to Communion with Dr. David Anders.

Foundations of Critical Theory, and an exploration of the chapters, "The Concept of Enlightenment", "The Culture Industry". We analyze how myth and enlightenment both contain one another, and why enlightenment negates itself. We explore what this means in concrete terms by examining the culture industry and how the apparent democratization of culture leads to its dissolution. Part one of two.

In this episode, Craig turns our attention to an often-overlooked dimension of meditation practice: our emotional lives.We're often taught that the biggest obstacle in meditation is our thinking mind—our thoughts, beliefs, and judgments. But strong emotions can be just as impactful, and often even more so.When we sit to practice, we may be subtly trying to feel better, hoping meditation will deliver peace or bliss. But what happens when we stop trying to fix how we feel—and begin to fully feel without needing to react, interpret, or escape?In this episode, The Practice of Emotional Freedom, Craig invites us into a radical kind of contentment. One that doesn't come from avoiding our emotions, but from no longer being ruled by them.Together, we'll explore how to release preference, suspend interpretation, and rest in the deeper ground of being where true emotional freedom becomes possible.We encourage you to tune in at a time when you can listen without interruption.To access the full transcript of this episode and discover more resources, visit the episode page on MeditationChangesEverything.com.

7/14/25 - We have to admit it, right? Certain Catholics were some of the most villainous characters in history. Or were they? Catholic historian Steve Weidenkopf digs into some of the most controversial Catholics ever to capture the popular imagination. He looks at notorious figures like Christopher Columbus and Marie Antoinette, so associated with their presumed evils that the modern world has completely written them off and even canceled them from any favorable mention or memory. And worse, the world now uses them as brushes to tar the whole Church! Weidenkopf discovers, though, that these figures are actually victims of a concerted project of defamation, their lives twisted and misrepresented by the Church's enemies: Enlightenment philosophers, Protestant rebels, modern secularists, and even malcontents within Catholicism. It's time to set the record straight. Purchase the book at https://shop.catholic.com/canceled-twelve-catholic-heroes-that-history-turned-into-villains/

In this latest installment of the recurring collaboraton between Ken Fong and Ken Kemp, they attempt to ascertain why Trump and MAGA folks enjoy being cruel to others. Especially those that they believe robbed them of previous stature and status in America. Fong and Kemp also bring in David Brook's recent piece in The Atlantic as he attempts to unpack why so many Americans think Trump is good. And they found a perfect example of where some people choose to ignore cruelty because they've become so acclimated to it in the 2024 German film The Zone of Interest.

What is Sat Yoga, truly? In this electrifying teaching, Shunyamurti returns us to the original foundation of all true yogic paths: the complete and instantaneous renunciation of the ego through the love of the infinite Self. This is not a path of gradualism or compromise. It is a radical return to the Real, beyond all illusion, trauma, fear, or thought. True liberation comes not with time, but with unwavering determination, tapas, and surrender. This is the final frontier—the rite of passage into God-consciousness. And the gate is gateless, because you are already That.

In this gripping episode of Strange Planet, host Richard Syrett explores The Liberty Code by Tyler Gilreath, revealing hidden clues in the Founders' writings. Did Washington and Jefferson guard secrets about extraterrestrial forces? As whistleblowers uncover crashed UFOs and reverse-engineered tech, Gilreath suggests a cosmic deception with spiritual stakes. Are these visitors aliens or demons? Join us to uncover how history, faith, and UFOs intertwine, potentially redefining liberty and destiny in a narrative that challenges everything you thought you knew. GUEST: Tyler Gilreath is an author and researcher specializing in historical and spiritual dimensions of unexplained phenomena. His book, The Liberty Code, examines potential extraterrestrial references in the U.S. Founding Fathers' writings, blending Enlightenment ideals with modern UFO disclosures. With a background in historical analysis and theology, Gilreath connects the Founders' Christian beliefs to warnings of a cosmic crisis. His work has sparked debate, drawing attention for its provocative take on liberty, faith, and extraterrestrial influence. Gilreath is a frequent guest on podcasts exploring history, spirituality, and the mysteries of the universe.

In this episode of Coaching In Session, host Michael Rearden sits down with Cesar Cardona, a speaker and mindfulness expert, to explore the journey of self-discovery, the power of mindfulness, and the balance between societal expectations and personal fulfillment.Cesar shares insights from his life experiences, including his transformative studies with Sri Lankan and Tibetan Buddhist monks. The discussion highlights why letting go is essential for growth, how self-discovery leads to inner peace, and why success doesn't always equate to happiness. Michael and Cesar also dive into the role of community, resilience, and vulnerability in creating deeper human connections.If you've ever felt disconnected, burdened by the past, or uncertain about your path, this episode will help you reframe your mindset and embrace your journey with clarity and intention.Key Takeaways:✅ True fulfillment starts from within—not from external validation.✅ Societal expectations can mislead individuals about their true needs.✅ Letting go of past experiences is crucial for personal growth.✅ The story of the monk illustrates the importance of releasing burdens.✅ Finding inner peace is essential before seeking external happiness.✅ Enlightenment is about realizing the vibrant self within.✅ Success, when externally driven, can lead to dissatisfaction.✅ Relationships should complement happiness, not be its sole source.✅ Self-discovery requires effort, introspection, and the right community.✅ Isolation in a hyper-connected world can lead to deeper disconnection.✅ Being kind to oneself is essential for long-term growth.✅ Embracing vulnerability can lead to more meaningful connections.Guest Links:

Send us a textThis Episode was originally made available to my Patreon community on September 15, 2024.... I hope you find it interesting.Study Notes: "Superstition and Fear - Faith and Hope"Episode Overview:Key Topics:Definition and characteristics of superstition.The biblical definition of faith.The influence of superstition on modern life.Enlightenment perspectives on superstition and faith.Practical steps to cultivate biblical faith.Distinguishing Superstition from Faith:Superstition is an attempt to control uncertain circumstances through human means rather than trusting in God's sovereign will.Faith involves a relationship with God characterized by trust, obedience, and reliance on His wisdom and timing (Proverbs 3:5-6).Practical Steps to Cultivate Biblical Faith:Immerse Yourself in Scripture:Romans 10:17: "Faith comes from hearing, and hearing through the word of Christ."Regularly read and meditate on the Bible.Pray Continually:Philippians 4:6-7: "Do not be anxious about anything, but in every situation, by prayer and petition, with thanksgiving, present your requests to God."Use prayer to express trust in God and seek His guidance.Fellowship with Believers:Hebrews 10:24-25: "Consider how we may spur one another on toward love and good deeds, not giving up meeting together."Be part of a community for support and encouragement.Obey God's Commands:James 2:17: "Faith by itself, if it is not accompanied by action, is dead."Demonstrate faith through obedience and practical action.Conclusion:Understanding the difference between superstition and faith is essential for a vibrant and biblically grounded Christian life. Superstition seeks control through human means, while faith places trust in God's sovereignty. Cultivating a biblical faith involves immersing in Scripture, prayer, fellowship, and obedience to God's commands.Thank you for listening to this bonus episode.

Ajahn Dhammasiha recently spent at few days in Bodh Gaya, India, to visit and mediate at the Mahabodhi Temple. This is the very spot where the Buddha attained supreme awakening. In fact, it is said that the 3 previous Buddha's in our aeon, also realized Sambodhi in this same spot. Ajahn Dhammasiha talks about the amazing strength of the spiritual energy one can experience at the 'Vajirāsana' ('Diamond Throne'), the seat under the Bodhi tree where the Buddha defeated Māra and the defilements and released his heart from all attachment, craving and ignorance. He explains that he can not recommend too highly the value of going on pilgrimage to this sacred site; the impact on one's Dhamma practice is often profound.Ajahn also talks about the fetter of Sīlabbataparāmāsa ('clinging to rites and rituals' / 'believing in purification through external actions of body and speech'). Whether on pilgrimage, or in our regular meditation practice, it's not about the body and the movements, rituals and activities the body performs; instead it's about the impact these external activities have on our mind.If we sit meditation, or perform puja at a sacred site, but the mind is actually developing unwholesome states of desire or aversion, we're wasting our time. We always have to observe carefully what is the effect of any activity on our mind, does it really lead to a diminishing of unwholesome states, and an increase in wholesome states. ⁠Dhammagiri Website⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Our Spotify Playlists⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Newsletter⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Dhammagiri Youtube Channel⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Pics⁠⁠⁠⁠#bodhgaya #vajirasana #buddha #enlightenment #mahabodhitemple #silabbataparamasa

Send us a textGuru Purnima celebrates the sacred relationship between spiritual teacher and disciple, honoring the guru's role in revealing our true nature as formless awareness.

Don't worry, we're still doing Dialectic of Enlightenment next week, but my tour schedule and personal demands on my time (I'm moving) prevented me from finishing a full episode before departing for another week. Thankfully, I had this reading guide finished and decided to release it now. Back next week with a full length episode. Cheers!

Not long ago, conditions like Alzheimer's were rare, but today, nearly one in two people over 80 are diagnosed with it. In contrast, in places like the Amazon, dementia affects only about one in a hundred—highlighting how modern lifestyle plays a major role in brain health. The brain isn't an isolated organ; it's deeply influenced by diet, sleep, movement, stress, toxins, and emotional well-being. Many people who once struggled with brain fog, depression, or memory loss have experienced dramatic improvements by healing their bodies—addressing gut health, detoxifying harmful substances, optimizing nutrition, and supporting the brain's energy systems. With the right tools, including targeted nutrients, lifestyle changes, and even therapies like breathwork or plant medicines, it's now possible not only to protect the brain from decline but also to enhance clarity, focus, and resilience at any age. In this episode, I discuss, along with Dr. Daniel Amen and Alberto Villoldo, how the body and brain are intimately connected and how we can think and feel better when we address our overall health first. Dr. Daniel Amen is a physician, double board-certified psychiatrist, twelve-time NY Times bestselling author, and founder and CEO of Amen Clinics, with 10 US locations. Dr. Amen is the author of many books including the mega-bestseller Change Your Brain, Change Your Life, as well as The End of Mental Illness, Memory Rescue, Healing ADD, and Your Brain Is Always Listening. In March 2022, Tyndale will publish his new book, You, Happier: The 7 Neuroscience Secrets of Feeling Good Based on Your Brain Type.   Alberto Villoldo, Ph.D., is a medical anthropologist, psychologist and shaman, who studied the spiritual practices of the Amazon and the Andes for more than 30 years. While at San Francisco State University, he founded the Biological Self-Regulation Laboratory to study how the mind creates psychosomatic health and disease.  Founder of The Four Winds Society, he instructs individuals throughout the world in the practice of energy medicine. Dr. Villoldo has written numerous bestselling books, including Power Up Your Brain: The Neuroscience of Enlightenment (with David Perlmutter MD), Shaman, Healer, Sage; and WSJ bestseller One Spirit Medicine.   This episode is brought to you by BIOptimizers.

WAITING FOR THE CAPTAIN COOK OF MARS: 1/8: The Wide Wide Sea: Imperial Ambition, First Contact and the Fateful Final Voyage of Captain James Cook Hardcover – April 9, 2024 by  Hampton Sides  (Author) 1930 COOK https://www.amazon.com/Wide-Sea-Imperial-Ambition-Contact/dp/0385544766/ref=tmm_hrd_swatch_0?_encoding=UTF8&dib_tag=se&dib=eyJ2IjoiMSJ9.xvSnWMwZwkRk3nB_oha-u7YL0k9kTC4voIQCoSWDz75eZXBRk_ZvRqUZ_P6pMaemKHJ8AhEdiyCpLrikQsp9iSIHNpX0v0n71kJqmCUW1VujrRMuDnenOyoWd5NtaDroImV4hSJ-hXf41L0HQmBS2q4Ws_PUqdVAXpvxskDgbzkPGE54c4xCqXxznyoRsahmmC7zXsNKkmipQCOKWZt728zHdG1ntVV4xSjkKJdX0v4.qQvWTGgLh4U5mw9t7ELNeecNVMkHQl35VNFyULPNX4g&qid=1720822146&sr=8-1 On July 12th, 1776, Captain James Cook, already lionized as the greatest explorer in British history, set off on his third voyage in his ship the HMS Resolution. Two-and-a-half years later, on a beach on the island of Hawaii, Cook was killed in a conflict with native Hawaiians. How did Cook, who was unique among captains for his respect for Indigenous peoples and cultures, come to that fatal moment? Hampton Sides' bravura account of Cook's last journey both wrestles with Cook's legacy and provides a thrilling narrative of the titanic efforts and continual danger that characterized exploration in the 1700s. Cook was renowned for his peerless seamanship, his humane leadership, and his dedication to science-–the famed naturalist Joseph Banks accompanied him on his first voyage, and Cook has been called one of the most important figures of the Age of Enlightenment. He was also deeply interested in the native people he encountered. In fact, his stated mission was to return a Tahitian man, Mai, who had become the toast of London, to his home islands. On previous expeditions, Cook mapped huge swaths of the Pacific, including the east coast of Australia, and initiated first European contact with numerous peoples. He treated his crew well, and endeavored to learn about the societies he encountered with curiosity and without judgment. Yet something was different on this last voyage. Cook became mercurial, resorting to the lash to enforce discipline, and led his two vessels into danger time and again. Uncharacteristically, he ordered violent retaliation for perceived theft on the part of native peoples. This may have had something to do with his secret orders, which were to chart and claim lands before Britain's imperial rivals could, and to discover the fabled Northwest Passage. Whatever Cook's intentions, his scientific efforts were the sharp edge of the colonial sword, and the ultimate effects of first contact were catastrophic for Indigenous people around the world. The tensions between Cook's overt and covert missions came to a head on the shores of Hawaii. His first landing there was harmonious, but when Cook returned after mapping the coast of the Pacific Northwest and Alaska, his exploitative treatment of the Hawaiians led to the fatal encounter. At once a ferociously-paced story of adventure on the high seas and a searching examination of the complexities and consequences of the Age of Exploration, THE WIDE WIDE SEA is a major work from one of our finest narrative nonfiction writers.
